Yuwen Rui covered his face with his hand.
He knew that blaming this person now was just venting his anger.
The main culprit was actually himself.
The atmosphere of the entire Sage King Manor became inexplicably heavy.
The servants were all frightened, deeply afraid that if they made a mistake, they would be dragged out by their angry master and heavily punished.
All kinds of brocade clothes and jewels were sent to Gu Shengyin's courtyard. Along with them were maids who weren't easy to serve.
There were also mamas who taught her all kinds of rules.
Gu Shengyin was indifferent to everything. She no longer had the kind and curious appearance she had when she first entered the manor.
However, her appearance was more in line with Yuwen Rui's "cold and indifferent personality who didn't like to see strangers" image.
Yuwen Rui really didn't appear again after that night.
Half a month later, on the Sage King's birthday, the Sage King presented a stunning beauty.
The Emperor was overjoyed and personally praised the Sage King for being respectful and filial, a role model for princes.
This was Yuwen Rui's goal from the beginning.
His imperial father was an idiot who only knew how to eat, drink, and play. The thing he loved the most in his life was beauties.
He once joked at a palace banquet, "Zhen is the ruler of the world, but it's a pity that I can't ask for a truly stunning beauty."
Yuwen Rui remembered these words in his heart, and the moment he saw Gu Shengyin, he had this plan.
The night Gu Shengyin was sent to the palace, the light in Yuwen Rui's study didn't dim at all.
The next day, it was announced that the Emperor favored the beauty that night and gave a decree to bestow Jie Yu.
When he heard this news, he couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, in reality, Gu Shengyin had only used a small spell on the Emperor that night, making him hug his quilt and have an incomparably beautiful wet dream.
The beauty in the palace became more and more favored, and the Emperor was even unwilling to attend morning court for her.
It was widely spread among the people that this Li Jie Yu had the appearance of an immortal, the reincarnation of a fairy from the heavens. She was grateful for the Emperor's hospitality and came down to the mortal world.
Yuwen Rui became more and more favored by the Emperor day by day. The Emperor gave him more and more power.
His methods were decisive and ruthless, and he had been in hiding for many years. In a short period of time, he had taken control of the situation in the court.
He should have been proud of his success, but he was getting thinner day by day. His confidants knew that there was a knot in his heart that could not be untied. That knot was Li Jie Yu, who was proud of her success in the palace.
Yuwen Rui had seen Gu Shengyin once in the palace.
She was dressed in a gorgeous palace dress and had exquisite makeup on her face. Her expression was arrogant and cold, completely different from how she used to be.
When she saw him, she didn't even spare him a glance. With a burst of fragrance, she brushed past him without any reluctance.
One of his followers, who didn't know what was going on, said, "Is this Li Jie Yu your junior sister? Isn't it all thanks to your efforts that she has today? Now that she has gained the upper hand with just one move … "
The rest of his words came to an abrupt halt when he saw the horrifying expression on his face.
Yes, she was the one who had given her everything.
It was natural for her to hate him.
Yuwen Rui couldn't help but cover his chest. Since that day, he had inexplicably suffered from heart disease. Many imperial physicians had seen him, but they couldn't see the problem. But every time it flared up, it felt like his heart was about to split open.
